Dreams really do come true!!

So I'm taking a break from studying my Finance homework. I believe life can go the way you want if you fight for it. I sure have fought hard for my life. Looking back when I was 23 years old would I be thinking in 12 years I would be married with 2 children. I had simple dreams back then. When I turned 25 I thought I would never get married. When I was 16 years old I thought when I would be 25 years old I would be married and have children but it didn't happen. I was bummed to say the least. I wasn't even engaged to be married and kids didn't seem like it would ever happen. I felt like one big fat failure. Turning 25 years old I would have to say was the hardest birthday I had. I was depressed for the entire month of 1999. It wasn't pretty. That's so wonderful about dreams. You can change it whenever you want or it takes a little more time to come true. So here I am living my dream. Right now, I should be studying for another dream I'm trying to achieve...a dream I have my heart set on which is putting my family towards financial success. I know that's kind of hard seeing how the world economy is falling apart but I know I can get there. There is always opportunities and you just have to have the courage to accept them. So that's what I'm doing right now is educating myself. Right now, I'm reading and learning about basic accounting to touch up on what I learned years ago and about the changing Stock Market. It's a lot to learn but once I put my mind on something I know I can do it. My hubby right now is following his dream and I'm so proud of that. I will support him and encourage his success like he does for me. I am blessed to be able to follow my dreams. Sometimes people feel like they can't do that. I thought I could never get out of my past abusive relationship but I dug deep within myself and just did it. I was scared to death for the unknown but I knew I had to do it if I wanted something better. Trust me it was the scariest thing I did. I was so emotionally drained I really didn't think I had the strength to do it but I fought for myself. Why not? I think I'm kinda worth it even if some people don't. They don't have to live my life. I hung on to things that inspired me like music and people who loved me to give me that extra boost. I took the responsibility for my life. What's good about mistakes you accept them, learn from them and then move on. For along time I was stuck in the past. I was moving forward in life but I couldn't seem to move from the abuse and my past. I struggled for years until I made an effort to change things in my life that were hurting my success and to achieve my dreams. I'm loving my life's journey even when I complain about the small stuff and in the great scheme of things it's pretty dang good. Life is what you make of it!! Take care, Peace..now I have to go study!!
